Powerful patients, paperless systems: how new technology can renew the NHS

Powerful patients, paperless systems: how new technology can renew the NHS This report proposes the Department of Health and Social Care should drive a fundamental shift in behaviour by working closely with suppliers and NHS partners to achieve three key targets over the next decade: to move the NHS from paper-first to digital-first.

The aim should be to ensure that 100 per cent of all interactions within the health service are digitally driven by 2028; to build a flourishing ecosystem of apps and innovation within and around the NHS, to better serve patients and to put them in control; and to ensure that savings from automation and innovation are ploughed back into frontline services, and that R&D and technology training see their budgets rise at least in line with NHS spending. Centre for Policy Studies
